The Return of the Greatest Sect Leader
Chapter 29 ~ Payment Days

Li Yao's stark eyes stared into the girl's eyes, and vice versa. One minute of silence was filled only by the two of them looking at each other. Li Yao could see a reflection of himself within the mysterious girl's eyes, as well as the girl.

"Where did you learn the art of martial arts just now?" li Yao asked, very curious.

The girl's eyes narrowed even more, suddenly a lot of blood rose up the throat towards her mouth. The mysterious girl couldn't bear it and vomited it.

Li Yao's face darkened, it seemed like he was over-attacking the little girl. Li Yao sighed then walked up to the girl who now looked extremely miserable.

Taking out a pill that could heal internal wounds through his spatial ring, Li Yao passed the pill to the mysterious girl. The girl's hand accepted it, without a second thought she directly swallowed the pill Li Yao gave her.

"Hey, why did you swallow it? Are you not suspicious? What if it's poison?" li Yao asked after seeing the condition of the mysterious girl begin to improve.

"It's not poison, is it?" said the girl with her face.

"Of course, no!" li Yao replied.

"Yes already then," the mysterious girl replied, very lightly.

"Right now answer my question! Where did you learn martial arts just now?" Li Yao repeated his question a moment ago.

"What martial arts? I don't understand what you're saying" said the girl, lying.

"Hey, jan-"

Instantly the mysterious girl hit Li Yao on the head. Li Yao's words stopped, he stroked his head which had just been hit by the girl.

"I'm older than you, call me brother!" said the mysterious girl.

Li Yao went up, it seemed like the girl had deliberately avoided his question. Li Yao's head shook his head, almost hitting the cute little girl.

"Remember! She was just a little girl," Li Yao said inwardly, pulling and exhaling deeply and deeply.

"The martial art that Big Brother just used, isn't it the Heavenly Road Art?" li Yao asked as he carved a smile.

"Heavenly Path Art? What'sthat?" The girl pretended to be stupid, or she was really stupid.

Longitudinal.

Li Yao patted his forehead, giving up interrogating the mysterious little girl. It seemed that the girl would not answer his question, no matter what Li Yao would say.

"Okay, forget my question! Can... Um, what's Brother's name?" li Yao asked, somehow for the umpteenth time.

"Tao Yuhan!" The mysterious little girl introduced her name.

It turned out that the girl was Tao Yuhan, the daughter of Chairman Tao Zhen who was reportedly weak and sickly.

"So, is Big Brother's father Chairman Tao Zhen?" Li Yao made sure.

"No," Tao Yuhan replied very swiftly.

Li Yao should have been able to anticipate that answer. Even so, Li Yao could not help but sigh.

"Did you tell me about my arrival in this forest to the little old brother's father?"

"No!" said Tao Yuhan.

"I won't tell my father if you visit me every week!" yuhan Tao exclaimed, as Li Yao's back began to disappear in the distance swallow

Li Yao's footsteps stopped for a moment, before finally taking another step. Not long after that Li Yao's figure disappeared. Tao Yuhan silently looked at the direction of Li Yao's disappearance in silence.

"I forgot to ask her name," murmured Tao Yuhan.

"What should I say if he should visit me every day?"

In the quiet forest, Tao Yuhan immediately continued his practice that had stopped. His body had already improved as a result of eating Li Yao's pill.

Now the little girl is back alone in the dark forest.

***

After placing the box containing parchment and important files in front of the sect head's room, Li Yao immediately rushed into the dormitory.

Li Yao's steps were light, he walked quietly so that no one would notice his departure. Arriving inside the room, Li Yao then laid her sick and exhausted body onto the mattress.

Li Yao's Qi was depleted when he opened the secret door in the middle of the forest a moment ago, his body was also injured from fighting with Tao Yuhan. Li Yao did not expect Tao Yuhan to be able to force him to this extent.

How could that girl use the Heavenly Road Art? Li Yao had one strong guess. Whatever the reason, in the future Li Yao would definitely be able to find the answer.

Li Yao immediately swallowed some nourishing pills to recover his body condition and Qi. Li Yao's soul was still injured from being hit by Tao Yuhan's attack. Despite consuming pills and resources, Li Yao's soul would definitely need some time to heal completely.

The fire phoenix attribute that had united with Li Yao's soul began to show its ability. Slowly but surely, those sparks moved to heal the wounds all over Li Yao's soul.

Li Yao's eyes were misty, he then closed his eyes and fell asleep.

***

The day went on as usual.

One thing that was different was just the usually gloomy face of coach Gao Ming now beaming. Li Yao knew exactly what had happened.

The sect master and the elders must have felt very relieved after obtaining the box from someone mysterious. The box was a box that could save the sect from destruction.

A few days passed, the promised day to pay the debt finally arrived. The horde of selfless men came back to visit the Mountain Road Sect.

Sect Leader Tao Zhen along with the four elders had been waiting for their arrival since earlier. The four elders were Coach Gao Ming, Treasurer Ma Heng, Coach Gong Yu, and Right Hand Sect Leader Fu Liu.

Li Yao watched the meeting from the roof of the building silently.

The entire horde gasped for exhaustion, tired of climbing the mountain to get to this place. The smile did not disappear from their faces. Today was their last day climbing a mountain like this.

After confiscating the Mountainous Road Sect, they would sell it to that person for an extremely fantastic fee. Thinking about it makes them very happy.

They do not know that what awaits is bad luck.

"Continent Sect, are you guys prepared to leave the Mountainous Road Sect?" said the fat man with a cynical smile, he is the leader of the horde.

Tao Zhen along with the other four elders smiled, Gao Ming even laughed softly after hearing the fat man's words. Their attitude and facial features were far from what the horde imagined.

The entire man inside the horde was confused. Had the Sect Chief and the Elders of the Mountain Road Sect already gone mad from not being able to pay the debt?
